Another year is just slipping by. Before you know it it’s Christmas. That time of the year when you have the chance to change your attitude and shrug away the less exciting bits of the year. Well, Almost. I need the change. And as I put up my tree in the studio, I decide to make something that will fill the air with Christmas spices and ginger and all things nice – Ginger Bread. I can’t think of a better way to bring in the Christmas Spirit. I want to make it everyday through this season. Here’s a recipe adapted from Nigella Lawson, but since I don’t like my bread too sticky it’s more my version of a cake which I can dunk in my tea.

Eat it as soon as it’s out of the oven. And watch how the year gone suddenly seems to be ending on a high.
